Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Big Ed​ Flutter-Chuck 3700 UV Glow, 1oz fishing spoon #8279

UV Glow paint dominates the face of this Eppinger spoon, featuring a striking fluorescent orange stripe along one edge for high visibility in deep or murky waters. Stamped on the blade near the line tie is the classic devil head logo, identifying it as a genuine Dardevle Big Ed Flutter-Chuck 3700, part of the legendary lineage of Michigan-born tackle. This heavy-duty spoon, listed under product code 8279, spans a significant 5 3/4" (14.5 cm) and weighs a solid 1 oz (25 g). Its reverse side features a polished silver finish that catches light brilliantly, complementing the glow-infused front surface. The hardware consists of a robust, silver-tone treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, ready for casting or trolling targeting large game fish. Regarding its state, the lure is in 5/5 condition, showing a clean, bright finish and sharp details on both sides of the metal blade. This specific Flutter-Chuck is designed for a unique movement pattern in the water, a hallmark of the Eppinger design that has been a staple in tackle boxes for over a century.
